gdb: Forward VALUE_LVAL when avoiding side effects for STRUCTOP_PTR
Assume that we have a C program like this: struct foo_type { int var; } foo; struct foo_type *foo_ptr = &foo; int main () { return foo_ptr->var; } Then GDB should be able to evaluate the following, however, it currently does not: (gdb) start ... (gdb) whatis &(foo_ptr->var) Attempt to take address of value not located in memory. The problem is that in EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS mode, eval.c:evaluate_subexp_standard always returns a not_lval value as the result for a STRUCTOP_PTR operation. As a consequence, the rest of the code believes that one cannot take the address of the returned value. This patch fixes STRUCTOP_PTR handling so that the VALUE_LVAL attribute for the returned value is properly initialized. After this change, the above session becomes: (gdb) start ... (gdb) whatis &(foo_ptr->var) type = int * This commit is largely the same as commit 2520f728b710 (Forward VALUE_LVAL when avoiding side effects for STRUCTOP_STRUCT) but applied to STRUCTOP_PTR rather than STRUCTOP_STRUCT. Both of these commits are building on top of commit ac1ca910d74d (Fixes for PR exp/15364). gdb/ChangeLog: * eval.c (evaluate_subexp_standard): If EVAL_AVOID_SIDE_EFFECTS mode, forward the VALUE_LVAL attribute to the returned value in the STRUCTOP_PTR case. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gdb.base/whatis.c: Extend the test case. * gdb.base/whatis.exp: Add additional tests.
